Sky Block for Minetest

Description

Build a world starting from a small island in the sky. This Minetest mod is intended to be used as a minimal game that allows the player to craft and use all the default items in Minetest in a fun and challenging way.

What will this change in my game?

* WARNING * this mod contains aliases that will disable all map generation in any world the mod is active!

Level Achievement Block

Death Hurts

If you fall below skyblock.WORLD_BOTTOM you will restart at a new spawn point.

Stone Generator

While you wait for your tree to grow, you should probably create a stone generator. This is done by placing lava and water next to each other with air between.

Infinite Water

If you want to create more water simply place your 2 water sources so they touch diagonally. Now when you take one with the bucket, it will be replaced.

What's Next

The rest is up to you. Load your favorite minetest mods and start building your world!
